    Been playing 32 bit on Macs since R1. R14 is the first with a 64 bit build for the Mac.

    Oh wow! I was blown away even on first log in with "fastest" video setting and no shadows enabled. All prior releases required those video settings with my machines otherwise the game would crash.

    So, after a few stable runs around the map on this 64 bit build I switched the video settings to either "custom" or "fantastic" and turned on the detailed shadows. It has been stable all week and holy f**k it looks great! So sharp and clean with great lighting effects. (Thunderbolt monitor helps)

    The rays from the sun. The detail on the rocks. The mist in Braemar cemetery. The snow in Vertas Pass....on and on. A huge difference between the 32 and 64 bit builds.

    Thank you.
